Are you talking about the Jerry Sanders that run a company which was, once more, listed in the highly selective Fortune's Worst Board Of Directors list a month or two ago ??

I do not think Jerry personally markets to Fortune magazine, which mostly ranks companies based on long term stock performance (notice that in Fortune magazine's ranking of "most admired companies" Home Depot employees are ranked #8 out of all companies for "employee talent," fortune.com, and McDonald's employees are ranked #51,
fortune.com. <ggg>).

It is my argument that AMD's slightly behind designs prior to Athlon would have been much more problematic (perhaps terminal) if AMD did not have a superior marketing team.
